It's probably a good time to recap for everyone what we know is coming in 3.2 so far, as well as potential changes based on Blizzard comments. Keep in mind that 3.2 isn't even on the PTR yet, so anything announced so far or those possible changes may not make it into the final 3.2 build. We saw this with the ammo changes and 3.1.
